ALESSIA CARA
"Growing Pains (FORD MISKIN Remix)"

Make my way through the motions, I try to ignore it
But home's looking farther the closer I get
Don't know why I can't see the end
Is it over yet? Hmm
A short leash and a short fuse don't match
They tell me it ain't that bad, now don't you overreact
So I just hold my breath, don't know why
I can't see the sun when young should be fun

[Pre-Chorus:]
And I guess the bad can get better
Gotta be wrong before it's right
Every happy phrase engraved in my mind
And I've always been a go-getter
There's truth in every word I write
But still, the growing pains, growing pains
They're keeping me up at night

[Chorus:]
And I can't hide 'cause growing pains are keeping me up at night
And I can't hide 'cause growing pains are keeping me up at night

Try to mend what's left of my content incomprehension
As I take on the stress of the mess that I've made
Don't know if I even care for "grown" if it's just alone, yeah

[Pre-Chorus:]
And I guess the bad can get better
Gotta be wrong before it's right
Every happy phrase engraved in my mind
I've always been a go-getter
There's truth in every word I write
But still, the growing pains, growing pains
They're keeping me up at night

[Chorus:]
And I can't hide 'cause growing pains are keeping me up at night
And I can't hide 'cause growing pains are keeping me up at night
And I can't hide 'cause growing pains are keeping me up at night
And I can't hide 'cause growing pains are keeping me up at night
